Thanks for the comment Anne,I'm glad you enjoyed it.There are a few local fish and game clubs that raise them for the state and release them .

Perfectly Beautiful - How great to see one again. They left West Virginia several years ago and we really miss them. Thanks for sharing the beauty.

This IS a spectacular image. Wow! I remember them all around us when I lived in SW Michigan too - but that was in the 70's and they dissappeared somewhat after that.

Thanks for the comments vincsnt and Karen,I'm glad you enjoyed it.He is right on the woodline,so he can duck out of sight in a flash,which he did after a few minutes.

Lovely shot. I like the leaf litter and pine boughs for the background.

Nice shot,we have them around here but they are quick in the wild and hard to get them still enough to photograph like this.Apart from the red and white this bird blends well with background.

Nice capture - makes me kinda homesick for Michigan where I would see thsm often. If there are any in WNC, I haven't seen them.

What a treasure to have around. We used to have them around here until the area got built up. Nice capture.
